🎮 What Is a Video Game Party?
A video game party is exactly what it sounds like — a party where video games are the main event. But we’re not talking about everyone huddling around one screen in a basement.
We’re talking about a fully-equipped game truck that pulls up to your home or venue, packed with:
- The latest consoles (PS5, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch)
- Dozens of multiplayer games for all ages
- Up to 15 players gaming at the same time
- LED lights, surround sound, and party vibes
It’s like bringing an entire arcade to your driveway — no setup, no mess, and no stress.
